Murphs56 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Here is an article that was written concerning Aaron Rodgers concussions in 2010. I think it's a good read for us Skins fans on how the process works (He suffered multiple)....http://www.foxnews.com/health/2011/02/04/concussions-affect-aaron-rodgers-super-bowl-performance/ One thing I wanted to point out though “I think his risk is not that significant or greater than if he hadn’t had any this season,” Berger said. “Having had an event a month or six weeks ago, he’s essentially back to baseline, otherwise he wouldn’t have been cleared to play. Once we clear a player to go back, based on the guidelines, that player is clear to go and really doesn’t have any increased risk.” Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2011/02/04/concussions-affect-aaron-rodgers-super-bowl-performance/#ixzz28kRiTI00 These doctors aren't messing around. If he's cleared to go, he's cleared. he's not more likely to suffer another one contrary to belief Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I remember a play where Tom Brady slid late like that, and London Fletcher got called for an unnecessary roughness penalty for hitting him. Griffin was clearly giving himself up. If an unathletic QB like Manning or Brady slides like that, even if it is late, it's a flag. Why? Because it's unnecessary. With athletic QB's, the refs don't show as much sympathy and let hits like that occur. It's frustrating because all QB's should be protected. No way could we have hit Matt Ryan like that and not have a flag thrown.I hate to agree with Michael Vick, but he was right when he said the refs are quick to look at athletic QB's as runners and allow them to take way more punishment. Yeah somebody linked the video of that London Fletcher hit on Tom Brady earlier in this thread. If one is a late hit then the other is too.

MustangSteve Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Sit him.Sit him for as long as it takes for him to get to 100% and then sit him another week. This is just awful, awful news. Concussions are nothing to mess around with. Hell no it's not, considering 3 and your done with football forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
